In Mexico there's 7-11, but only in the big cities (Mexico City, Guadalajara and Monterrey), here we only have OXXO and EXTRA, and unfortunately they don't serve big gulps

Ramon, have you ever heard of Rapididos Bip Bip? I was once in Juarez and saw a few. I know Aguascalientes is nowhere near Juarez, but I was just wondering...

The 7-11's by me in Chicago land, have an awesome selection of soda pop/drinks. The prices are very cheap.

Lately,once or twice a week,I'll get an 42oz Gatorade Lemon Lime big gulp. For around $1.29 it is a refreshing bevy. 7-11's are cool because they are open 24/7. For me it's like a beverage security blanket. :D

WOW! I didn't know about that minimarket chain, maybe is a local or a regional one, and to be honest to you, I've never went to Juarez, the mini-market chains that I know are Oxxo, Extra, 7 Eleven and also am-pm, but it's only in Mexico City too.

The one with more coverage in Mexico is OXXO, and you will only find Coke products and only Sol beer and Tecate beer there (Carta Blanca, Superior and Indio beer too), because this chain is property of FEMSA (Owners of Coca-Cola FEMSA and Cuauhtemoc Moctezuma -makers of Sol beer and Tecate beer-), and in the other ones you'll find both Coke and Pepsi, EXTRA is property of Grupo Modelo, the same company that makes Corona Extra beer (so you'll only find Corona there, and other Grupo Modelo beers like Modelo Especial, Modelo Light, Estrella, Montejo, Victoria, Leon, Negra Modelo, Pacifico, etc.) wow! (considering that I don't drink beer...)

Like we say in Mexico: after this cultural breviary, let's continue...

I have also seen the Big Gulp bottled sodas here. Apple ginger snap, cola, diet cola, and mint lime twist are the four flavors. 20oz for 99¢.
